Transportation and Land Use

Overview

There is an inextricable link between a community's transportation and land use policies, its reliance on the automobile and the emissions of greenhouse gases. Our transportation system has a profound impact on the overall livability of our city. As the region grows, traffic congestion will continue to grow resulting in greater public health impacts and an increased amount of time spent in traffic unless we can provide better transportation choices for residents and businesses.

Providing better ways to get around is strategy and as such, the Office of Sustainability suports other City departments and agencies to implement transit-, bike- and pedestrian-friendly policies.
